Magical Realism of Louise E Marianetti (1916-2009) February 4, 2011

A New York Times critic coined "magic realism" to describe the painting style of Marianetti in a 1943 review. With this review Louise Marianetti would go on to attain critical attention particularly for her 1949 exhibits at the Vose Gallery in Boston, MA and the Newport Art Museum in Newport, RI. Bert Gallery will re-create these 1949 exhibits and examine Marianetti's career in the context of the local and national art world.
